As the famed Sturgis Motorcycle Rally gears up for its closing weekend, a group of bikers is carrying a message on their two-wheeled machines. Along with their black leather jackets, the bikers who make up the Medicine Wheel Ride wear red to raise awareness of the ongoing problem of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives. Many of the riders are Native women who organize events to get the message out. GUESTS Prairie Rose Seminole (Three affiliated Tribes – Arikara, Northern Cheyenne, and Dakota), co-director of the We Ride For Her documentary and MMIP Advocate Sheela Farmer (Sicangu Lakota from Rosebud Sioux Tribe), retired civil servant with Department of the Interior and a lifelong motorcycle enthusiast Crystaline Bauer (Cheyenne River), receptionist for Indian Motorcycles in Sturgis, S.D.

Standing a few miles east of Richardton, North Dakota, is a modest conical hill with a lot of history. It's called Young Man's Butte. Several legends exist to the origin of the name. One of the most plausible came from Rain-in-the-Face, a Lakota Sioux, born near the Cheyenne River in present day South Dakota in 1835.
Ski patrollers bring a variety of unique experiences and perspectives to their work, but very few have the experience and background that our guest Peter Gannon arrived with. Peter grew up on the Oglala Lakota Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota and is a member of the Cheyenne River tribe. Listen to our conversation about how Peter's family and life experience affects the way he sees life in the mountains, what it is like to come to skiing as an adult and as a person of color, and what he loves about patrolling.

Pourquoi "Hors-Série" ? J'aimerais vous proposer des épisodes hors-série abordant les cultures autochtones et leur rapport à la mort. Ce n'est d'ailleurs pas pour rien que l'Occident, en mal de vivre et en quête de sens, se tourne de plus en plus vers ces cultures ancestrales longtemps stigmatisées et dominées mais qui pourtant ont bien plus à nous apprendre qu'on ne le pense. Et inexorablement, les cultures autochtones ne séparent pas la vie et la mort comme nous pouvons le faire dans notre culture occidentale où la mort marque une fin.
Emma hosts human rights lawyer Katherine Todrys to discuss her recent book Black Snake: Standing Rock, the Dakota Access Pipeline, and Environmental Justice, on how far the fight against DAPL has come even as it's faded into the background of the media cycles. Todrys first discusses how she first came to human rights, environmental issues, and working with Indigenous communities, before jumping back to 2016 when this 3.8 Billion Dollar project was first announced as a plan to carry hundreds of thousands of barrels of crude oil each day along the Missouri River and through sacred and occupied lands of the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. After a small discussion on the dependence created by pipelines, they get into the birth of this mass water protection effort, with young folks from the Cheyenne River reservation coming off of the Keystone XL Pipeline protection effort working with the Standing Rock community to fight back. Next, Katherine takes us into the history of the land and the US' occupation of it, with no official agreements since treaties in the mid 19th Century, looking and how this specific land was claimed by the US Army Corps of Engineers as a part of the Pick-Sloan Act's dam creation, flooding and devastating certain areas of the region. She and Emma also dive into the importance of LaDonna Brave Bull Allard, a Standing Rock Sioux member that hosted the camps, which reached 10k people, on her land and gave everything to the fight, before also touching on the Sioux peoples' “prophetical” view of the fight. Looking at 2016, as the camps were growing, they discuss labor day as the marker of when the battle changed, with private security bringing in dogs and taking much more violent tactics, building up to the North Dakota Police Department using “non-lethal” violence. They look at the incredible trauma from psychological and physical abuses, and the incredible resilience from the water protectors, seen in the Tiger Swan intercept leak, and discuss the developments since Obama's “goodbye” attempt at interference, including the 2020 federal judicial declaration of the permit's invalidity, before they discuss what the Biden administration could do, and what activists are doing for it. Emma wraps up the free half with another update on the wave of labor organizing we're seeing across the country, and the importance of remembering the fights against the filibuster and for the PRO Act. And in the Fun Half: Emma, Brandon, and Matt(s) watch Alex Berenson and Joe Rogan chat about the spectrum of politicians that appear on Tucker Carlson, from the far right Bret Weinstein to Islamophobic imperialist Tulsi Gabbard, Chuck from Alabama talks convos with coworkers, and Warren from Toronto takes up Brandon's ear regarding lifting on the Left. Michael Schermer defends Thomas Jefferson by reminding us of the recency bias when it comes to condemning pedophilia and master-slave relationships, Kyrie continues to Kyrie, and Daves, from Jamaica and Evanston, respectively, call in with their own stories on vaccine hesitancy, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Cheyenne River Youth Project® was founded in January 1988 to address the community's need for more services that support struggling children and their families. Originally housed in a defunct bar on Eagle Butte's Main Street, the organization created a safe place for children to come after school; it offered activities such as arts and crafts, intramural sports and volunteer mentorship,and it provided a healthy meal and snack each day. The volunteer-run youth center, known affectionately as “The Main,” quickly became a vital part of the Cheyenne River community. Despite its small size, and few resources for programming, the center was filled to capacity each day. The grassroots, nonprofit youth project has come a long way since that modest beginning. In 1997, CRYP built a new youth center that would be able to support continued growth. The new Main opened its doors in May 1999, and it features a recreation room, library, family room, commercial-grade kitchen, office space, and residential quarters for long-term volunteers. CRYP continued to expand. In 2004, with input from Cheyenne River's young people, it began work a dedicated facility for ages 13-18. Cokata Wiconi (Center of Life) opened in 2006 and is a tremendous achievement for CRYP, with more than 25,000 square feet of space and many exciting new opportunities. The teen center has a full-size gymnasium, computer lab, dance and art studios, library, and private apartment for long-term volunteers. It also is home to the Keya (Turtle) Cafe and Keya Gift Shop, as well as the Family Services program, the innovative Teen Internship program and the Waniyetu Wowapi (Winter Count) Lakota Arts Institute.

NCAI prepares transition plan for next presidential administration Possible lockdown for Cheyenne River reservation due to COVID-19
The Cheyenne River and Oglala Sioux of South Dakota have set up checkpoints on highways to contract trace the spread of COVID-19. South Dakota's governor thinks that this is illegal. Today, Drew looks at the current context and compares it with past case law to catch you up on tribal sovereignty and state authority in the United States.
A recent Supreme Court case and a confrontation between the South Dakota governor and Cheyenne River and Oglala River Sioux over corona virus checkpoints has put questions of tribal sovereignty into the headlines. Frank and David discuss the complicated history of the relationship between the federal government, state governments, and Native American nations. Last Drops Frank: RIP George Sam Shepperson David: Tony Hillerman novels and Wild West Morningside
Many ranchers are being harassed on the Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota simply going to check cows on the Reservation. Lets do a real look at some are calling a Sovereign Nation.
STORY #1 - Native Organizations Move From In Person to OnlineHOST: As shelter in place orders continue across the state of Minnesota, many tribes and urban Native organizations are moving their work online. Reporter Melissa Townsend spoke with leaders in the Twin Cities about how well it's working.REPORTER: The American Indian O-I-C in Minneapolis has moved all its programs online. That includes the accredited high school, the adult basic education and the career training programs. President and CEO Joe Hobot says the organization was well positioned to make this move.HOBOT: For a good portion of 2018 and 2019 we had been already on-boarding internet based programming as a way to expand our reach, as our community often colocates between their tribal homelands and the twin cities metropolitan areas. (:15)He says he expects a real drop off in the number of community member she can work with.HOBOT: The pre-existing economic disparities around digital access really coming to bear in this crisis. Those who have means are accessing the internet based platforms, those who do not are probably the ones most in need. (:14)Many leaders are concerned with being able to connect with people in the community. Patina Park was until recently the Executive Director of the Minnesota Indian Women's Resource Center. She now works in the Walz-Flanagan administration.PARK: For MIWRC, how do you provide services that are so needed while still honoring social distancing. How do you do outreach when you are not supposed to be out. (:11)Park says this can impact the financial health of an organization.PARK: To be closed, creates a dynamic that they don't have work that's billable necessarily. (:10)Joe Hobot says the American Indian OIC is on good financial footing.HOBOT: There are some contracts that are based on interfacing with the client and there will be a decline in the earned revenue there. But we should be good through the rest of our fiscal - if you can't see me, I'm knocking on wood - but we should be good through the rest of our fiscal. (:13)The Native American Community Clinic in Minneapolis recently moved all their services online. Antony Stately is the head of NACC. He says the pandemic has put the clinic in an unstable financial situation.STATELY: March was a scary month. April we've been kind of slowly working our way back. We've been able to successfully compete for some of the emergency funding. (:10)Stately says the Native American Community Clinic is financially OK for now.Nancy Bordeaux is a Lakota elder who has her own organization training others on how to heal through traditional culture. She is currently in the middle of leading a 12 month training based out of the Minneapolis American Indian Center, but she put it on hold right after the shelter in place order.BORDEAUX: So I'm working on how to do a day and a half training on-line - the planning, development, and creation of all of that stuff. (:13)Bordeaux says she believes the work can be just as powerful through online tools and social media.BORDEAUX: The words that we put out there, the presentation, everything that we put out there, is still healing because we are a spirit. And our spirit travels with those words and our spirit travels with a presentation that we are telling because people can feel it in our hearts, so collectively we are communicating from heart to heart. (:27)The current shelter in place order expires on May 4th.For Minnesota Native News, I'm Melissa TownsendSTORY #2 - MOVIE REVIEW FOR ONLINE VIEWINGHOST: While we are sheltering in place, our film critic Gerald Zink has a few recommendations for movies available on digital platforms. Gerry is a 17 year old comics aficionado. He is Mnicoujou Lakota from Cheyenne River. He posts his movie reviews on Facebook.ZINK: Bloodshot is based on the Valiant Comics character of the same name, and it stars Vin Diesel as the main character. It is a well done, turn-your-brain-off-style, super-powered, Vin Diesel action picture. Vin Diesel gives a fun performance that does a fine job anchoring the story and action scenes. The action scenes are massively entertaining, with colorful visuals and larger than life spectacle. The plot is the one point where the film stumbles. The writers try to give the story a deeper meaning, but the film focuses so little on them that they don't really add anything. Bloodshot is an amazingly fun and entertaining super-powered Vin Diesel movie, and viewed under those guidelines it is well worth your time.Birds of Prey is a Harley Quinn crime drama, that stars some of the most popular C-list characters from the Batman franchise. Margot Robbie finally gets to give the performance she wants to as Harley Quinn, and she does an effective job at centering the movie. The rest of the cast all give great performances as well. Birds of Prey is a surprisingly fun comic book crime drama that does a good job at balancing comedy and humor.
On April 10, President Trump signed two executive orders meant to speed up the construction of pipelines like the Keystone XL (KXL) and other methods of transporting oil and natural gas across borders. For residents of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, thousands of whom remain trapped after weeks of flooding caused by rising waters, the announcement was a slap in the face. Oglala Sioux Tribe Tribal Chair Julian Bear Runner told reporter Alleen Brown of The Intercept that Trump's latest executive orders felt "like being kicked while we're down.” In this episode of TrumpWatch, Cheyenne River tribal chairman Harold Frazier joins Alleen and Jesse for a discussion of how the President's actions will affect indigenous people throughout the region .

(4/17/19) On April 10, President Trump signed two executive orders meant to speed up the construction of pipelines like the Keystone XL (KXL) and other methods of transporting oil and natural gas across interstate and international borders. For residents of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, thousands of whom remain trapped after weeks of flooding caused by rising waters, the announcement was a slap in the face. “Trump’s decision to ram KXL through while our families suffer feels like being kicked while we’re down,” Oglala Sioux Tribe Tribal Chair Julian Bear Runner told reporter Alleen Brown of The Intercept in her article “Trump Pushes a New Pipeline Permit as Floods Devastate Native American Tribes.” In this episode of “TrumpWatch with Jesse Lent” on WBAI, Alleen is joined by Cheyenne River tribal chairman Harold Frazier for a discussion of how the new executive orders and other Trump administration policies could affect indigenous people in the region both in the short and long term.

Help us get to know you better! Please fill out our survey CONTENT SEGMENTS: Why is it that money makes people who seem to be fair-minded, turn into something completely unrecognizable to most of their supporters? The Mayor of DC, Mayor Muriel Bowser was once against the use of the name “redskins” when discussing the Washington football team. Now that she is trying to get the team to return to Washington DC, she is more than happy to use the name, “redskins” to cozy up to the team’s owner, Dan Snyder. I guess money does have an influence on those who have no “skin” in the game. Here is the article where she professes to NOT using the term "Redskins" to describe the Washington NFL Team: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/dc-sports-bog/wp/2015/05/11/washington-mayor-muriel-bowser-says-she-doesnt-use-redskins-because-its-offensive-to-many-people/ Here is latest article where now (apparently due to the motivation of MONEY...she know feels it's ok to use the offensive name: http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/politics/DC-Mayor-Muriel-Bowser-Saying-Redskins-Again-303363151.html The Washington post also professes to have conducted a poll of 500 Native Americans asking them if the Washington Team name is racist. They "Claim" that their poll is on the up and up as the result they posted states that 9 out of 10 Native Americans do NOT find the name offensive: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/new-poll-finds-9-in-10-native-americans-arent-offended-by-redskins-name/2016/05/18/3ea11cfa-161a-11e6-924d-838753295f9a_story.html Update on Carlisle story: Tribes Hear Promise of Cooperation from Army in Requests to Bring Children Home from Carlisle On May 10th, several Tribes met with the Department of Defense in Rosebud, SD to discuss the return of at least 13 children buried at Carlisle Indian School. The Rosebud Sioux Tribe and the Northern Arapaho spurred the meeting with formal requests for repatriation of their relatives; however, other tribes with children buried at Carlisle came to the meeting about repatriation including the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, Oglala Nation, Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate, Cheyenne River, and the Northern Cheyenne. Full Story here: http://www.boardingschoolhealing.org/tribes-hear-cooperation-on-carlisle-repatriation Title: OFF the Reservation? Hillary Clinton's Native Adviser, Holly Cook Macarro is Wife of a TYRANT, Who Harms Native Americans. Summary: Over Ten Thousand Native Americans have been harmed by their own tribal leaders and they look for justice. Is Hillary Clinton the right president for them? We already KNOW that Trump is not right for America. With her choice for Native American advisor, now we see why her "HONEST and Trustworthy" poll numbers are so low. Her Native American Adviser is none other that lobbyist Holly Cook Macarro, who supported her husband's efforts to steal water from Temecula Indian Reservation allottees, going so far as to write a bill doing just that. Mrs. Macarro's husband, under his tenure as Chairman of the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians in Temecula, California, there have been numerous gross violations of human and civil rights committed against tribal members. As a result, over 300 tribal members, many elders and children, have been stripped of their tribal citizenship. Many hundred more eligible tribal members have been denied enrollment with the tribe as well. The results of the gross human and civil rights violations did not stop at dis-enrollment, as each victim was stripped of voting rights, healthcare, education, and elder benefits/assistance. Full story here: http://www.originalpechanga.com/2016/04/hillary-clintons-native-adviser-holly.html Comments on this finding: A. Nonymous said... Isn't she Filipino? WTF does she know about Native issues, other than being married to a tiny Native dictator? Reinstatement_Restitution said... It is clearly a token effort to show interest in Indian issues. To the Clinton campaign Indian issues mean very little otherwise, she would have retained a more respected advisor. Kumeyaay Queen said... "There Corruption will fail". Ther foundation is money and not the Spiritual creator. "The earth will Cry for many days "and their ignorance will be known when the Capital is Charged with fire and energy. Close of the show.
